福居良 RYO FUKUI

Blossoming greenery, dazzling clear streams, clear skies, and silently falling snow...

A beautiful scenery created by the famous Hokkaido-born pianist, Ryo Fukui. Here, forever.
His fresh and sensitive playing captivated many listeners, and his debut album, "Scenery," garnered worldwide acclaim. Fukui, who began playing the piano at age 22, recorded this album at age 28. His youthful, dedicated performances delightfully stir the emotions of listeners. From the striding, sweeping swing of "It Could Happen To You" to the exhilarating, joyful "Early Summer," and the late-autumn night air of "Scenery," the album exudes a "Hokkaido-esque" feeling, blending grand scale and subtlety with Fukui's unique talents. The beautiful scenery woven by Ryo Fukui lives on forever here. Text by Yusuke Ogawa (UNIVERSOUNDS / DEEP JAZZ REALITY) * "Made in Japan" quality is gaining global attention. The album is luxuriously crafted using "uncolored virgin vinyl," eliminating any coloring materials, such as carbon, that can affect sound quality. Using only high-purity straight vinyl chloride as the raw material, and increasing the disc weight to 180g, we have achieved stable rotation and a rich sound field expression. The "180g heavy disc/pure vinyl" specification allows you to enjoy a refined sound image.
